How We Do House Church

What is the wife of a pastor called to do in a house church? How should women in this position think about this role when their husband is pursuing planting a biblical house church? It is clear that a woman's role in house church is essential. The pastor's wife is meant to glorify the ministry and work that her husband has been called to, and could not do without her. She helps keep her husband qualified to be a pastor, pointing out things that her husband perhaps can not see. She is a light when things may seem dim, and steps out faithfully with him to serve in ways that her husband can not. In this episode of How We Do House Church, Dr. Jason Barker and pastor Dale Partridge discuss what the role of a pastor's wife is in a house church.

In this episode of How We Do House Church, Dr. Jason Barker and pastor Dale Partridge discuss confessionalism and we’ll as other theological and ecclesiological checks and balances involved in biblical house church.

How Do You Handle Giving in a Biblical House Church?
How We Do House Church
11/01/22 • 14 min
Should we tithe in a biblical house church? Is tithing the same as giving? How does giving look different in a house church setting? When we give to a church, we should do so with a heart that desires to bless the church or ministry we have given to, with the hope that our funds will be used to the glory of God. We should also trust that the church or ministry we've given to is using what we've given to the glory of God. In a biblical house church, this area of worship is transparent, because we know the personal needs that each member has, and the church body desires to help and bless in ways that seem more and more impossible in a traditional house church. In this episode of How We Do House Church, Dr. Jason Barker and pastor Dale Partridge discuss how a biblical house church handles giving.
What Does Evangelism Look Like in a House Church?
How We Do House Church
10/17/22 • 15 min
How do you keep a biblical house church focused on the Great Commission, and prevent them from becoming only inward-focused? As Christians, we are called to evangelize to the lost, sharing with them the hope that is in us through the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of God. We must have an appetite for sharing the Gospel and must be properly equipped after we come together as a body to worship and glorify God. Biblical house churches should do just that. Because of the intimate and tight-knit community, we can be strengthened by one another, grow in our knowledge of the truth, and be more prepared and able to evangelize in our everyday lives. In this episode of How We Do House Church, Dr. Jason Barker and pastor Dale Partridge discuss what evangelism looks like for a biblical house church, and how it involves the equipping of each member of the local body.

How do you practically get a house church started? Is it approached the same as a traditional church plant? There are qualifications to starting a biblical house church, and are aspects that must be prayed over, weighed out and considered by the men that plant them. And you will not be alone. There are many people who are in the beginning stages of planting biblical house churches, going through these same practical steps, and are able to stay connected through the Reformation Fellowship network. In this episode of How We Do House Church, Dr. Jason Barker and pastor Dale Partridge discuss what it takes to start a biblical house church, and why planting through Reformation Seminary and the Reformation Fellowship is important to consider.

Is seminary a requirement for planting a biblical house church? How should we think about men who desire to plant biblical house churches? We wouldn't trust someone who hasn't been trained in a particular skill set to teach us how to master that skill. The same should be true for men who desire to pastor a house church. We should expect them to have the theological knowledge and biblical wisdom to shepherd the body that they oversee. In this episode of How We Do House Church, Dr. Jason Barker and pastor Dale Partridge discuss why men who are being led to plant a house church should go to seminary.

How Can House Church Strengthen My Family?
How We Do House Church

While the heart of every local church is the shared fellowship members have in Jesus Christ, the soul of every church is the biblical and intimate relationships produced between those members. In a sense, a local church is only as fruitful as the relationships between the members. In comparison to the traditional church, the house church offers an environment that integrates the family and offers a setting for a greater degree of mutual ministering. Namely, Christian families tend to find themselves more deeply connected with others when they assemble in homes. In this episode of How We Do House Church, pastor Dale Partridge and Dr. Jason Barker discuss these familial advantages found within the house church.

What Is A Biblical House Church?
How We Do House Church
09/07/22 • 12 min
In the West, we have an understanding of church that’s based more off our experience than off Scripture or church history. Most faithful churches don’t have a problem with what they’re doing but more with how and where they’re doing it. What is the church of the New Testament really intended to be more like an event than a meeting? Was it intended to be a monologue or a dialogue? Was it intended to be a place you go to listen to merely listen to a sermon or a place you go to fellowship deeply with other believers? These are important issues and questions that we address in this episode. But the biggest question is, “Is there any other way?“ Namely, is there an alternative to gathering on Sunday somewhere other than a building? Somewhere that doesn’t have children’s ministry? Somewhere that doesn’t have a band and a bookstore? In short, the answer is yes. We can meet in homes. What does that look like? What is a Biblical House Church?
